Back to being a full time mummy

 ... So the helper did come back to Sg land and the Phangs after all! And my life as a working mama resumes in the next few hours. I was reminded by a fb posting on PepsiCo ceo that regardless of what position and role she plays @ work and what ever the demands are... Her role as a mother and daughter and wife don't change... And anything else should have not have any bearing! What a timely reminder! And I guess.... Vice versa too! 

I pray i continue to play the role well. As a full time working mum, I play 4 roles in one ( an employee / a mother / a daughter / a wife ) 

God please grant my strength and I thank you for your grace at work and at home. Thank you so much For the love and support around me. 

Help(Er)less eve of last day

I figured what will my worse fears be as a sahm! 

- LOs rejecting your gourmet menu

- the endless routine of clearing toys

Help(Er)lessInAction@day5

It's day 5.

The kitchen seems more in place after use. Dishes don't look so overwhelming anymore. 

To beat the morning clock to 1030 seems a manageable feat.

And the backache as of 2200 hrs is not so bad.

I reflect upon hubby comment and feedback to spend more time with junior.... And I said if  I had not been partial in my time allocation, it was nv intentional. Perhaps it's my lack of intention tt could have cause the lapse.

Today.... For the first time in 10 months .... I spend some sincere me time with junior. "Just you just me " we relaxed in bed, I sang him some hymns. He was calm, relaxed and filled with gratitude. I gave him a baby massage and didi dozed off. 

Didi mama love you. Perhaps I hadn't fuss over you as much as I did with kor kor. But you are certainly my dear dear son. Slowly but surly.... I will master the supermon attributes!

Hugs and cheers for being half way thru the challenge ! 

Help(Er)less! 10 days challenge

So the helper went on her 10 day long vacation and I took leave for the ten days set myself up for this challenge!

As expected,the unexpected came knocking:

- a 7am con call was scheduled on my first day of the challenge 

- the hubby have reservist medical check up on the same faithful day 

- lastly and most critically ... Horsie baby decide to fall ill for kinda the first time today! He is down with a fever :( 

- I had arranged for a buffet lunch with a bunch of mummies and the hot deal is on condition that I am present! Omg

End of School holidays!

It's Sunday and the official end of the school holidays! Tml... Conrad will commence term 2 of his pre school. The little one have done well so far and I'm so proud of him. Key milestones would be his readiness to be toilet trained and how he is ever so reactive and responsive to us. I truly thank God for this.

I took 2 days leave during the school holidays for the kids and I'm so glad it was not wasted!mummy me was determined to make the off days count for the kids and for myself. Turns out that the boy had so much fun the last few days during his horidae he is displaying some signs of anxiety while approaching Monday!

All in all... I truly count my blessings and I must say motherhood haven been as exciting as now when you start to have your Lil one revolve all around you.

Truly thankful.

Let Go and Let God

Do not worry about Tml for Tml have its own worries.

God I leave my burdens and worries to you and have faith that you will provide.

God I cast my worries and burdens onto you cos you are indeed my provider. 

Amen 

Another Milestone ! Conrad @ SFX

Today is an important day cos it's Conrad's orientation day at SFX.
